I seriously doubt they thought it through that far
They probably just printed the necessary .. saved us the details ... to save paper back then (no luxury of PDAs .. limit-less gigs)


2813 ft slant ?

That's likely why ... flyover was trained 2000ft at our airport ..

at least 500 ft above circuit altitude
1500 on flyover is same distance as 1000 ft mid downwind
It would still be odd to only require the sock be visible from 1000 ft above the sock as both situations are more than 1000 ft from the sock.
